HOW TO USE
1.Operation of switch (Fig. 21) (switch trigger and light switch)
(1)For safe operation of the machine, a “switch lock” is provided on the side of a handle.
If the “switch trigger” is pulled in a state where “switch lock” is pressed in the direction of the arrow mark, the main switch can be turned ON. And the “switch lock” is used as the “light switch”. If the “switch lock (light switch)” is pressed in a state, the light is turned ON.
(2)After the switch is turned ON, even when you release your hand from the switch lock, the body continues running and the light continues being turned ON as long as you keep on pulling the switch trigger.
(3)If you release the switch trigger, you can turn OFF the switch and the “switch lock” returns to the original position automatically and the light turns OFF too.

CAUTION
Do not fix and secure the switch lock. Besides, keep your finger off the switch trigger when the circular saw is being carried around. Otherwise, the main body switch can be inadvertently turned ON, resulting in unexpected accidents.
Keep the light ON during cutting operation only. If it is lit ON in other cases, the main body switch can be inadvertently turned ON, resulting in unexpected accidents.
If the main body is left as it is with the battery inserted, there can be a case where the [switch lock] touches the floor and/or wall surface and lights up
continuously, depending on the direction of the body. Be careful, since continuous lighting can easily make a
2.About Remaining Battery Indicator
When pressing the remaining battery indicator switch, the remaining battery indicator lamp lights and the battery remaining power can be checked. (Fig. 22) When releasing your finger from the remaining battery indicator switch, the remaining battery indicator lamp goes off. The Table 4 shows the state of remaining battery indicator lamp and the battery remaining power.

State of lamp Battery Remaining Power
The battery remaining power is enough.
The battery remaining power is a half.
The battery remaining power is nearly empty.
As the remaining battery indicator shows somewhat differently depending on ambient temperature and battery characteristics, read it as a reference.
NOTE
Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or break it. It may lead to a trouble.
To save the battery power consumption, the remaining battery indicator lamp lights while
pressing the remaining battery indicator switch.
3.Cutting procedures
CAUTION
Recheck that the saw blade is securely clamped. Confirm that the wing nut for adjusting the slot depth, the wing bolt for adjusting the angle of
inclination are securely clamped.
(1) Place the base on the material, then align the premarked line and the sawblade with the notch at the front of the base (Fig. 15).
When the base is not slanted, use the large cutout
as the guide (Fig. 15, Fig. 23).
